Hazem El Masri is an Australian Rugby League player, who plays for the Canterbury Bulldogs (1996-present) in the National Rugby League, and also is a postive role model for the Lebanese and Muslim communities in Australia.

Though a solid performer on the wing, his forte is goalkicking - he is recognised as one of the most accurate kickers in the history of the game.

El Masri holds the NRL point scoring record for a single season with 342 points (16 tries and 139 goals [also a single season record]) in the 2004 season. As of mid-2005, he stands 9th on the all-time pointscoring lists.

He also holds the Canterbury career points record, surpassing Daryl Halligan in 2005, and most goals scored by a Bulldogs player in a single match with 11 against the Rabbitohs in Rd 21, 2003.
